In his formative years his art was sponsored by, among others, Henri Matisse, and later he was much admired by Picasso. This illustrated work provides a visual and narrative survey of the Balthus' body of work . . . Mieke Bal's analysis is focused in the eerie sense of very real and very unreal that the paintings emanate. She considers this the heart of Balthus's work. Bal argues that the paintings draw the viewer into a world we know not to exist. This canny fictionality makes allegations of erotic appropriation naive and censoring. Reducing Balthus's work to the paintings of nude adolescent girls is, moreover, ignoring his many works that are not in the least focused on this theme.
